Hello! I’m Sivan
Licensed Clinical Professional Art Therapist
Artist
Dementia Strategist
I have been working with older adults living with dementia and their families in one way or another for the last 12 years. I am passionate about improving the quality of lives for individuals living with dementia.
I help women who care for their partners living with dementia create personalized care interventions so they can feel equipped and confident to handle whatever crap dementia throws at them that day.
My Approach & Values
Mental health care in our older adults is so important, yet underserved. I believe that when we treat individuals as a whole, acknowledging all the dimensions of their life and attending to not only their physical needs but their mental and emotional ones, we are able to decrease suffering and increase quality of life.
Learning to work from a therapeutic and mental health perspective can decrease unwanted behaviors, increase client satisfaction, and improve quality of life for the care partner and the individual living with dementia.
